Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Flying was expensive in 1972, so most Americans took car trips instead. My parents were no exception. They always took car trips to visit my father’s relatives in Indiana.

#2 I was 10 years old in 1967, and I was excited to visit Expo 67 in Montreal. My mother, however, was terrified of the bridge collapse and the island sinking, so we didn’t go. I was ready to go on my own, and I would fly everywhere.

#3 I was 16 years old when I took my first flight in 1973. I was traveling with my friend Nancy. My father drove us the hour to Logan Airport in Boston, where we boarded a plane to Bermuda. I felt a thrill watching my savings account grow.

#4 I had ended my junior year by breaking up with my steady boyfriend and vowing to start having a big, exciting life. I convinced my friend Nancy to join me on a trip somewhere, and we flew to Bermuda.
